Oh yikes, this once-in-two-week blogging routine better not be a habit. I hope it's just an indication of how busy July can get with planning for a birthday and doing different summer things. Life The girl had her birthday party today with friends from school and she had a fun day! It was nice seeing the kids have fun outside of school and take over the bouncy event place like they knew every corner of it. I was grateful for everyone who were brave enough to come to a party despite recent rises in case count. Thankfully most or all of us were vaccinated so that made the decision-making easier.

Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See: Why do I take so long with audio books? Even captivating ones as this? I had a busy week with swimming, so audio books took a backseat.
My Name is Memory by Ann Brashares: This is a pretty quick read. I wasn't expecting that, especially due to its size and small font.

Sometime at work when we need an endcap idea, we will collect several books that share the same cover image. People get a kick out of it. It happens all the time.
